LASHKAR GAR, Afghanistan – NATO forces were accused of shooting dead two Pakistani men in Afghanistan's Helmand province early Thursday, amid tensions following a deadly air strike that killed 24 Pakistani troops.

Relatives said the men were from Chagai in northwestern Pakistan, about 18 miles from the border, The Express Tribune reported. They were reportedly visiting relatives living in Afghanistan when NATO forces opened fire.

The incident comes as NATO faces rising anger from Pakistani authorities in the wake the air strike that killed 24 Pakistani troops near the Afghan border Saturday.

Yup, Pakistan should have never considered the United States an ally simply because of the political and economic pressure that the US normally puts on any country it has "good relations" with. They are now treading a very thin line. On the one hand, state sponsored terrorism against India and on the other hand the US putting enormous pressure on them by asking them to fight against the same guys. While dealing with enormous anti-american sentiments amongst the general populace. I just hope that Pakistan does not get into any trouble, because it will be a huge blow to the power balance in the region. Plus the nukes wont be safe and can be used against anyone
